"Fed's Mouthpiece": Market Overinterprets Hammack's Comments on June Rate Cut
"Fed's Mouthpiece" Nick Timiraos stated that Fed's Hammack's remarks on Thursday garnered widespread attention, as some market participants overinterpreted them as a signal that the Fed might be prepared for a rate cut in June. Hammack did not actually indicate that a June rate cut was imminent. When discussing a June rate cut, Hammack used two qualifiers, "if": "If we receive clear and convincing data before June, if we know what action is correct at that point, then I believe the committee could take action." The danger of overly relying on these broad "if" assumptions is that they do not provide particularly clear answers. (Jinshi)
